Thanks so much, Leah! I'm glad to hear your experience has been mostly positive after talking about strong feelings for your T. It is terrifying to me but I do trust my T and feel like he will probably take it in stride, although it's still so scary to me to talk about.

I lately get in this state in my sessions where I am talking about something seemingly unrelated but suddenly become unable to get words out or make coherent thoughts... it's embarrassing, and I have realized it's due to this "elephant in the room" of not talking about my feelings towards my T. I turn red and get so close to talking about it, but can't.
